Alone in the dark I waited so long
for a kind hearted spirit
that would not do me wrong.
Having all but surrendered
to a world turned so cold,
when I found an angel,
with a heart made of gold.
The darkness was parted,
the sun finally rose,
and I thanked the gods
for my fate they had chose.
Joy was unbounded,
the future seemed bright,
for I had my angel, my love
and my light.
She taught me to laugh,
to see with new eyes,
she made me feel needed
with her wanting sighs.
She was my soulmate,
of this I was sure.
She'd have my daughter
and we'd be secure.
Secure as a family
of her's, mine, and ours.
With a love burning hotter
than ten thousand stars.
I thought we'd never be parted,
what we had was real,
but Destiny's not
for the mortal to steal.
My Angel, unable
to save this lost soul.
To love one man completely,
and yet still feel whole.
She turned and she ran,
Fate took her away.
Alone in the dark again
I am today.
